script initialization error

Sorry if I reposted this twice but as I said I'm a newbie. First I would like to say I think that MM is the best tool I've come across. When I go to file>create reports>(any script used) I get the following error:

"Error happened during script initialization: A script engine for the specified language can not be created"

What does this mean? I've already uninstalled, rebooted windows and re-installed MM but I keep getting this error. Can some one please help.
One more thing is I'm using Windows XP Home edition if that makes any difference. Thanks -vjandme

Probably your Windows Script Host is not installed or corrupted. You can download this from the Microsoft website and install it again.

Thanks lowlander for the advise and you were right... I downloaded
the script hosts from microsoft and it works now. This is one great tool.
Thanks again -vjandme
